I have two children that attended DJDS K-12, graduating in 2022 and 2024. They are both well prepared for, and thriving in college. They are confident in seeking relationships with their professors. They developed leadership skills to stand up for themselves and Zionism on their college campuses.

The DJDS community feels like a family in every possible way - teachers and administrators are approachable and happy to help with any difficulties that arise, and students are friendly and welcoming.

Love the community of the school and how friendly everyone is. The teachers have great relationships with the students and are always offering to help and mentor the students. The small class sizes make it so that every student gets the help and attention they need. Athletics are great because everyone gets to be on a team if they want to. There are lots of great programs for students that are continuing traditions from when the school first began. Overall just an incredible place and a great school.

We...
